My Stitching Tree

Hello, Dear Ones! I'm sorry I haven't been posting much here lately but my talented dainty fingers have been so busy! I've been stitching and wanted to show you my stitching tree.

This little drop leaf table sits in the den under my old Regulator clock that belonged to my great grandfather and dates from the late 1800s. I thought this would be the perfect spot for my stitching tree.!

Most of you probably know Priscilla who blogs at Priscillas, She is a stitching wizard and does cross stitch all through the year and her Christmasing is amazing! Go pay her a visit an tell her I sent you. Anyway, I've admired her needlework for a long time and thought - I need to pull out my needle and floss and make some Christmas ornies! So I did. Thank you for the inspiration, Priscilla!

Here we go...now I just made up my own way of backing my pieces to hang on the tree. They are certainly not perfect and all but they are cute! I found this pattern on Pinterest! She's my little Christmas angel.

Can't have a Christmas tree with out Jesus on it.

I did buy a book of Christmas patterns for the rest so I'll just shut up and let you look.

Hope you've enjoyed seeing my Christmas stitching tree. Since I've picked up my embroidery needle again, that's all I want to do anymore. I know I'm a little bit crazy but man, I have fun.

Shelia, I absolutely love the tree....all your beautiful needle works. These will be keepsakes. My daughter Karen has made me many cross stitched pieces for my tree. Blessings to you and your loved ones, xoxo, Susie

I love your little stichery Christmas tree, very cute. I love homemade ornaments and fortunately my mom and sister made several of them through the the years, I'm blessed. I have a few prints and dishes of Currier and Ives, so I'm loving the prints you have on the wall.Continue on with your crazy fun :).Kathleen in Az
